Note: In SFTOS 2.3.1.9, these messages also appear when moving from the routing image to the<br />

switching image without resetting the configuration to factory defaults from the Boot Menu. This<br />

issue results from the use of unique flash file formats.<br />

Use one of the following procedures to resolve this condition:<br />

• Clear the configuration in flash by resetting the switch to factory defaults. See Restoring the System to<br />

the Factory Default Configuration on page 67.<br />

• If the first procedure fails, you can format the flash using the Boot Code Utility menu: During the<br />

reload, when prompted, press 2 (Boot Menu), then 6 (Run flash diagnostics). Or press 2, then 30 (Boot<br />

Code Utility Menu), then 14 (Format File System).<br />

Caution: If you are not patient during the formatting, you WILL corrupt the code by interrupting or<br />

rebooting.<br />

Recovering from a Software Upgrade Failure<br />

When an image is downloaded to flash, as shown in Figure 260, SFTOS verifies the image CRC. Switch<br />

software can be corrupted during an upgrade by downloading the wrong file to the switch or by deleting<br />

the image file.<br />
